Nose
Sweet stewed fruit in syrup, earthy peat, but quite soft, with a nice sweet smoky edge. Burnt leaves, quite earthy in a way and also dusty. More fruit return on the 2nd wave of aromas. Quite restrained for the ABV.
Palate
Sweet fruity start, with a woody backbone, which adds bitterness to balance the sweet wine. A bit tart, and tannin-y, the peat is here for sure, there's quite some ash too, earth, smoke and a hint of camphor. Cinnamon and clove, treacle and some sweet burnt meat, a twig of mint, perhaps. Drying.
Finish
Quite dry and ashy, meaty and sweet prunes marinated tenderloin. A very good combination of wine and peat, highly recommended.
